Wonderful Family Time
We all loved the remoteness of this property. It sits right on the water but has two large side yards so no close neighbors. Everyone loved all the kayaks, row boat and paddle boat. The view of the lake is very inviting. Day trips into Marquette were about a 30 minute drive. We appreciated the well stocked kitchen as most meals were cooked at home. We even made blueberry muffins with the wild blueberries we picked off of Hwy 553. The only drawback were the flies and mosquitoes but you quickly learn which time of the day is best for being outside. It really didn't deter our activities. We had bug spray. Overall, this was a delightful stay!

Another Nice Stay at 660 Mackinac Lane
As the first time we stayed here, the property was in excellent shape and readiness. The house and grounds were clean and all good to go. There were 4 in our group and we were very comfortable. We enjoyed the kitchen/dining area for eating and the living room was very pleasant for evening TV watching. We also enjoyed several good games in the pool room.

Perfect week away
We had an amazing week! The house was beautiful and lots of good fishing on the lake. We caught perch, large mouth, crappie, and northern pike. The house was fully stocked and had everything that you needed being away from home. The house was comfortable and clean. The hosts were wonderful and easy to coordinate with. We had plenty of space and we were able to relax and enjoy a peaceful week together. Thank you for sharing your place with our family! We made lots of great memories and hope to be back again!

Family Time
We are a family of ten. There was plenty of space to relax. Neighbors were quiet for the most part. It’s a beautiful view of the lake and the use of the kayaks was a perk! My husband and sons went bird hunting not to far away, while the rest of us took a drive to Munising. The Escanaba River is close by and is breathtaking. P.S. The locals Shell Gas station has friendly employees, and tasty pasties!!

About the host

Hosted by John Musgrove

Host profile image
My wife was born and raised in the Marquette area and we absolutely love the Upper Peninsula. When we had the opportunity to purchase this getaway in 2013 we could not pass on it. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Michelle and I wanted a place to relax and enjoy life with our four kids. We were so pleased to find this beautiful getaway in the community we love so much. Sadly our careers afford us very little time to enjoy this great getaway. While we look forward to the day we can call this place home we are unable to at this time so we are able to share it with you. We hope many families are able to enjoy this little piece of Pure Michigan..

What makes this property unique

This property is quiet and relaxing. The view from the bay windows are spectacular. The fall colors are absolutely stunning and the amount of snow we get is ridiculous.
